Modeling windows with unique lintels

Can anyone tell me how I could get a new window to model correctly to match these historic windows?  I haven't found any way to make an arched lintel (to match the black arch).  Any thoughts?  Now that I think of it, maybe I can leave it as I have it drawn with a straight lintel and just make a 3D solid to go over it in an arch shape..I'll still post it in case anyone knows of a better way to do it.

Or material regions.  One for the arc-segment window top (it's recessed) and one for the brick lintel (proud).  Good luck texturing the lintel so it looks like the photo.  That might require a material region for each brick.

 

Must it render with photorealism to match the pic?  I'd charge by the minute if my client made me do it.  

 

A good situation for clay rendering.
